From the brewer
We aged our Imperial stout 7 months in an Apple Brandy barrel as a fun experiment. The result exceeded expectations, a nice balance of beer and barrel. Light and not heavy, this beer has flavors of dried fruit, not boozy at all with a slight finish of apple. Only 1 barrel of this beer so it won’t last long.

Light apple and brandy on the nose - definitely has the smell of something strong and over the top. That said, the characteristic sourness of Big Block's barreling actually works in this beer's favor, it's pretty toned down and balanced. Really pretty nice, I'd say.
